Shared Albums in Mac Photos not showing

[blinkie]

Hey,

I'm hoping someone can help me. Within Photos the Shared Albums is not visible. I've set it up in system preferences but nothing is changing in the Photos app. When I try to add pictures to a Shared Album, an empty Shared Album appears on my iphone but not on my Mac. Does anyone have any ideas as to where I'm going wrong. For clarification, within system preferences iCloud I am only selecting Shared Albums, not selecting iCloud Photos.

Thanks in advance,

B

It's fixed! Here's the solution for anyone else with the same problem. iCloud features in Photos are only available within a System Photos Library. I was using a Photos Library that I had not designated as System. After I changed the designation to System, iCloud and Shared Albums appeared in the Photos sidebar. All fixed.
